Who we are
Robinson Mortgage Group is a father-son Mortgage Agent partnership based in Toronto, comprised of James and Jake Robinson. Our mission is to help clients navigate the complicated and everchanging landscape of mortgage financing, focusing on the client’s bottom line—not the lender’s. We provide clients with independent and unbiased advice, taking a financial-planning approach to mortgage financing to ensure the plan in place keeps today’s needs in mind, while always considering future opportunities.
With over 30 years of experience in the Canadian mortgage industry, we are highly equipped to provide expert advice and guidance to our clients.
Robinson Mortgage Group operates under Dominion Lending Centres Mortgage Watch, a brokerage located in the east end of Toronto where James is a managing partner. Working within the Dominion Lending Centres network, we have access to a wealth of resources, in addition to our strongly established connections with lenders, lawyers, realtors, and any other party involved in the real estate financing transaction.
What we do
Imagine a world where you went to the Kraft store to buy your Kraft Dinner, and then went to the Red Rose store to buy your tea, and on to the French’s store to buy your ketchup, and so on until you had all your groceries. Not only would this take an enormous amount of time, but you would also have no way of knowing if the price you were paying was reasonable. Fortunately, we have grocery stores that carry many products and offer convenience, choice, and competitive offers from various suppliers.
Many Canadians have discovered the same benefits by using a mortgage broker for their real estate financing needs. We offer a one-stop shopping opportunity and ensure that you get the best mortgage for your specific needs, while forcing the lenders to offer their best rates and terms.
Robinson Mortgage Group is part of the largest mortgage grocery store in Canada. We are part of Dominion Lending Centres: a multi-brand national mortgage company. With 4400 agents and 650 offices across the country, we originate more mortgages every year than any of the big banks. We have buying power, and we use it—ensuring our clients always get the best financing options available.
James Robinson
Agent, Partner
James has over 30 years of experience in the residential mortgage industry, ranging from direct sales for over 22 years dealing directly with borrowers, to 8 years in various senior management roles at one of Canada's most highly-regarded chartered banks.
His interest lies in helping borrowers navigate through the sometimes confusing and complicated world of mortgage financing and helping them gain knowledge and experience in wealth-building real estate investment strategies.
Through personally investing in real estate since the age of 23, James has developed a very high degree of expertise in the most successful financing strategies, recognizing that it’s not just about obtaining the best rate, but also about how to maximize your borrowing while minimizing your cash outflow.
Jake (Jason) Robinson
Agent
Jake began his journey working under a high-volume mortgage broker, learning to build and complete mortgage transactions from the ground up. He did this concurrently while completing the Mortgage Agent Licensing requirements through Seneca College.
Prior to mortgage financing, Jake spent 7 years cooking in some of Toronto’s best restaurants, eventually working his way up the ranks to Sous Chef in his final years. The decision to team up with his father to form Robinson Mortgage Group was, in part, influenced by Jake’s continued desire to cater to clients’ needs and expectations.
